Lift catfish baits off the bottom with a slotted peg float.
Typical delivery times range from 5 to 7 days
When you want a catfish bait riding above the bottom instead of dragging directly through it, a float on the leader changes the presentation. The 2.5-Inch Slotted Peg Float is especially useful for Santee Cooper-style rigs, where the float adds buoyancy to the leader and helps suspend the bait in the water column.

Rig the float on the leader of a Santee Cooper-style setup when you want the bait suspended above the bottom rather than lying directly on it. That presentation is particularly useful while drifting or fishing current, and it can help keep the bait riding above mud, vegetation, and other bottom structure. The slotted format also makes changing between floated and non-floated presentations more convenient.
Keep these 2.5-inch slotted peg floats in your catfish tackle when you want the option to move a bait off the bottom without committing every leader to a float.
A peg float adds buoyancy to the leader so the bait can ride above the bottom. It is commonly incorporated into Santee Cooper-style catfish rigs for this type of suspended presentation.
A peg float is useful when you want to present the bait above mud, vegetation, or other bottom structure, as well as when drifting or using current to carry a suspended bait presentation. Removing the float lets you return to a more conventional bottom-oriented presentation.
The slot allows the float to be added to or removed from an existing rig more easily than a conventional float that must be threaded onto the line. That makes it convenient for changing presentations without completely rebuilding the leader.
Yes. A peg float is a defining component of the Santee Cooper-style catfish rig, where it is positioned on the leader to provide buoyancy and help suspend the bait above the bottom.
They are sold in packs of 10. The product listing also states that the package comes with two pegs.
